Digital asset investment products set an all-time high last week, attracting $43.9 billion inflows. According to Coinshares’ latest weekly report, it has skyrocketed as investors’ appetites for Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs continue to rise.
That figure surpassed the previous record of $4.27 billion set in December 2024, following the US presidential election. Additionally, the company has acquired a positive trend for crypto investment products for the 14th consecutive week, bringing a total of $27 billion compared to the previous year.
Meanwhile, the record-breaking week coincided with a series of developments in the US in procryption policies. Last week, lawmakers advanced three major bills, including the Clarity Act, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance Act, and the Genius Act, which President Donald Trump signed the law on July 18th.
As a result, Coinshares noted a sharp increase in trading activity. Crypto Exchange-Traded products (ETP) weekly trading sales reach $39.2 billion worldwide, with Bitcoin and Ethereum leading the volume.
The surge in inflows and trading activity has pushed total assets under management (AUM) to an all-time high of $220 billion.
Ethereum closes the bitcoin gap
Bitcoin products won $2.2 billion from $2.7 billion last week.
However, the activity remained strong. According to Coinshares, ETPS trading accounts for 55% of all Bitcoin exchange volumes, highlighting the growing advantage of institutional products.
Meanwhile, the Short Bitcoin Fund also recorded an inflow of $10 million. This reflects skepticism in the growing market as Bitcoin hits a new all-time high of over $123,000.
Meanwhile, Ethereum products continued to gain momentum in the market.
According to Coinshares, funds focused on ETH raised $2.12 billion inflows, almost doubleping its previous $1.2 billion record.
This week’s influx extended Ethereum’s winning streak to a 13-week straight inflow, currently accounting for 23% of total AUM. In particular, this year’s Ethereum funding inflow has already surpassed its 2024 total. This was $6.2 billion.
Meanwhile, other major altcoins also gained traction during the market rise. The Solana Funds raised $39 million inflows, while XRP and SUI brought $36 million and $9.3 million, respectively.
The widespread increase in influx reflects on ongoing crypto market gatherings and growing institutional interest in emerging sectors.
